Jiu-jitsu after 35: it's never too late to start

29 September 20261 min read

Jiu-jitsu después de los 35: nunca es tarde para empezar · Dream Art Jiu-Jitsu Valencia

“I'm too old for this.” We hear it a lot and always give the same answer: jiu-jitsu is one of the few contact sports you can start at 35, 45 or 55. In fact, our team leader, Cristiano Siman, is a two-time IBJJF European Master champion.

Why it works after 35

  • It doesn't depend on strength: technique and leverage count for more than power.
  • It improves mobility in your back, hips and shoulders.
  • It's addictive: there's always something new to learn, which helps you stay consistent.
  • It helps you switch off: an hour on the mat and you forget about work.

How to avoid injuries

Warm up properly, listen to your body and train with partners at your stage of life. In the BJJ Masters +30 classes the intensity is controlled and the instructor adapts the exercises if you have any niggles. Mention it before you start.

Timetables designed for you

Mondays and Wednesdays at 14:30, Tuesdays at 8:00 (BJJ) and Thursdays at 8:00 (No-Gi). Before work or during your lunch break.
